All Star Gala! For Saturday!
In all honesty, he would rather be on his broomstick, making up practice and his regiments than dressed up at a party. Thomas knew that the All Star match didn't really count, but when you were flying among the best of the best, a player wanted to be the best of the best. He wasn't as rusty as he thought he'd be, but just the lack of flying made his muscles more sore after practice than he was used to. He was barely holding himself up, and if it weren't for the beautiful woman on his arm he'd probably be slumped in a chair, ready to pass out from exhaustion.

Samantha was back and he could fly. Both of his best friends had made the all-star team, and they were going to be playing together for the first time in their careers. Thomas really couldn't think of anything that could make him happier, though showing up Brookstanton on the pitch might be the cherry on top. They were teammates, and however much Thomas found the other beater loathsome, he would work with him for the win. It would at least be an interesting match, if anything.

"Would you like to dance?" he asked Samantha, smiling. He'd missed her terribly and was glad that her stint out of the country was over. Just in time.

Their fans and the press had been so good with them because while Adrian smiled and enjoyed himself Maggie made sure her killer glare locked on the person before they entered a five feet radius of them. After their silent acceptance of her visual threat, Maggie was more than willing to smile, laugh, and joke. There was to be no more drama in Adrian's life, nor the one they shared. She couldn't be sure she'd be able to keep herself out of trouble, no matter how hard she tried, but her family was more important than that.

It was nice, however, to bask in her own natural glow of pregnancy. She had been 'in hiding' for so long that this bump of hers that had seemingly sprouted from nowhere to the press of Great Britain had not had its proper time to shine. Now that she and Adrian were together again, and happy, and just perfect (though she wished not to jinx it), Maggie wanted people to be happy for her. It was a strange cycle. She did not want the harassment that the media could often cause, but being able to share their excitement with the world filled her heart with joy.

"Geoffrey will be dabbing his tears soon enough," Maggie said, sitting back in the chair. Her hands were folded, resting on top of her stomach as she smiled pleasantly. Her rings, she'd taken to wearing both in public though no official confirmation of anything had actually been made, sat on top, shiny and beautiful. Her legs were crossed at her ankles under the chair, but she'd slipped off her too-tight shoes a few minutes ago.

Adrian laughed, giving a final glance back over at his brother-in-law before shaking his head and looking away. No crying people for him, thanks. Just normal wizard folk expelling a normal amount of body fluid in public--- which was none. With a final shake of the head to get that last thought out, Adrian stretched to sit more comfortably with his arm across the back of Maggie's chair.

He was about to ask if she thought there would be anymore food served when a short witch appeared before them. While her sudden appearance had been surprising, Adrian tried to not appear as struck as he felt. Fans tended to act strangely, he had noticed over the years, definitely English ones more than Portuguese, so it would not be right to act strangely back.

The witch had a squeaky voice, and he was sure she also was on the verge of tears, but she did manage to speak clearly enough to convey that she loved the both of them and through that she had come up---- with a list of baby names? There was no way his face was completely calm; that was a bit creepy, wasn't it? He smiled awkwardly, and before he realized what he was doing, the parchment was in his free hand and she was crying fully---- why did unfortunate things have to happen to good people?

"I'm afraid to be touching this," he confessed in a low tone once the woman left, just incase there were any nearby listening ears. Adrian held the piece of parchment out, it being as far as his arm could extend (and how he had received it).
